Quite interesting indeed!
I did not know what changing the p and a values would do, so I played
with them.
It got even more interesting when I tried p=3.5
p and q need to be integers to be a valid knot.
you can try this to see like a rope
a=20;
d=1;
p=3;
q=34;

Sanjeev, I found this very interesting so I tried to run it my system
and it throws up multiple errors to do with the library file,
dependencies.scad.
My dependencies.scad is dated October 2022, I'm running 2023.04.19 (git
21e66f197). Any ideas on what the problem might be?

If step is set to 0.003, there's a gap in the figure. 0.002
and 0.001 go
back to no gap. That's all I tried. The difference is that
0.003 doesn't
fit evenly into 1 so the for loop needs to be adjusted to
compensate.
If you start out with:
numsteps = 200;
step = 1/numsteps;
it'll be obvious if you put in a non-integer.
